My DD1 will be moving up to high school ( year 7 ) in September. She will be 11 and 6 months. The school is a bus ride away.
At present I walk her and her sister to primary school every morning on my way to work and DH does pick up.
Its going to be impossible for me to take her to school as I need to take dd2 to primary school, I dont drive and the school is a bus journey in the other direction.
Does she go by herself ? Is it normal at this age ? She has never gone anywhere by herself, let alone on the bus ?
What do I do ? Should I start letting her take small bus journeys as practice ? is she too young ? Aggghhhhhhh Shes my baby !!!
